These are gorgeous porcelain animals from eden and eden. Sketch like yet dimensional and finished, they're both gestural and sophisticated all at the same time. I love their shiny, white, finessed finishes too. Yum!

I'm dazzled by these amazing porcelain vessels by clementine dupre. Delicate and bold at the same time, it's the simple forms juxtaposed with the beautiful decorations, drawn and scratched, raised and textured, that make my heart beat a little faster. Gorgeous, sublime work to start the week!

I'm really liking these ceramics by loren kaplan. One form so delicate and precise, the other more raw and gestural. A strong range of expression, each beautiful in it's own right. Thanks to elle decor SA for the original link!

A kind reader gave me the heads up about the strange and wonderful ceramic work of firth macmillan. I'm really drawn to the crafting of this piece, along with the interesting exploration of botany and biology the overall work explores. Very intriguing. Very nice.

Yummy glazed gorgeousness from joanna howells. There's something about porcelain and the icy, buttery, coolness of these chun and celadon glazes that just makes me shiver. Every mark, every "flaw", every beautiful detail is celebrated because of this marriage of two materials. So good you could eat it.

I really like the strength and bluntness of these ceramic pieces by joseph pintz. More than just simple, functional objects, these pieces explore the magic of the commonplace, the community we find in a shared meal and special moment together. A perfect (and beautiful) choice of art as we move through the season of holiday celebration I think.
